Beginning Tuesday morning, Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom® 2 became available—just in time for my birthday. And what a present it is. I’ve been using the Lightroom 2 beta for the past several weeks and found it a great improvement over version 1.x. And apparently, the shipping version of Lightroom 2 contains improvements over the beta. Great news all around.
I won’t delve into the details here since Lightroom 2 is so excellently covered elsewhere by experts such as Scott Kelby over at his Adobe Photoshop Insider blog.
The North American upgrade is a good value at USD $99, however, I gather that the International price (Europe, Australia, etc.) is much higher—go figure. Downloads are available on the Web, but retail copies do not seem to be generally available in Ontario.
